What a week! Fast paced and steady she blow, I mean go. I was blown away by the mounds of thoughtfulness! May day was an amazing happy go lucky day. My dear friends, customers, Frank & Suzanne dropped by the shop on May day and presented this lovely little living May day arrangement.
They brought Jules a pink rose basket. I am almost sure the tiny round pink flowers are snow berries in bloom.
We had a live guest book again. What a hoot, the live guest book. Although both Jules and I were pre-occupied with customers and had little time to attend the guest book.

Back a few steps, and the twice a year outdoor antique market...
We had a marvelous time! Our friend Rita joined us and the three of us enjoyed six hours of outdoor picking. I know, please don't be envious. I found a treasure display piece! Share later and I wish you could have seen us. At the end of the day when we were ready to load up we realized our items didn't fit in our vehicle. Girls, really! It's not uncommon to see U-hauls and big trucks loading up treasures. Thank goodness for our good friend Connie, whom is a vendor at this show. Connie's items are displayed inside a little blue country house in among-st the outdoor market. She was caring and sharing and told us we could store some of the items in her shop. Now see, that worked out just fine. However, not without the aid of Connie. Thank you Connie!
Changing it up...
I love creating lavender sachets from vintage trim. Lavender love. A capture of my most recent vintage trim sachets above.
Beer Soap, need I say more? Nope.
There were so many happy moments crammed into two days and I feel as though it will take the entire week to share.
A highlight...
Sweet Shonna, a fellow soap maker dropped by the May day event on Friday. Seriously, a happy moment. She brought me a gift. A bar of her soap. It smelled yummy and looked amazing. Shonna whips up some unique marble soap.
The yard...Flowers...
Some of you know and have read that if I weren't a soap maker, I'd be a flower shop girl. I take pride in presenting a garden filled with colorful pick me blooms. Evident from way back...
I've always adored flowers.
Last night I awoke to gaze out the window. The big flower moon was beaming. Did you see it? I planted flowers yesterday and then when night came, the big flower moon shined upon their petals.
Don't forget to stop and smell the flowers.
Enjoy caring and sharing days.
With all good wishes,
Jill 00
